I specifically started buying Video Game CEs over standard games as I was sick of paying 40 quid for a disk in a box and ultimately wanted more for my money and a keepsake for if I really enjoyed a game.
Long before Video game collecting, like a few people here, I was always collecting something, be it pokemon cards, POGs, Tazos, Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Most of my teens years were spent collecting Yu-Gi-Oh cards and playing in local tournaments. It was always the excitement of buying a booster pack in the hope of getting that one card you've been dying to get for ages but couldn't afford to pay the price the guy in the shop wanted for it on it's own! >.< Pretty much like here. Waiting for that 1 good deal to come up when you can't afford what other people are charging.
So yeah, my main reason for video game CE collecting is my dissatisfaction of standard Ed games and my want to have the best version of things tat get released which I may want anyway!
